Public bug reported:

Trying to open this 2 MB PDF with Inkscape causes Inkscape to use 3.7 GB
of memory. Saving it as an svg file uses 78 MB on disk. Opening the
saved svg file requires 3.5 GB of memory. If I then do ctl+A, ctl+G, it
crashes immediately with the following output:

Too many heap sections: Increase MAXHINCR or MAX_HEAP_SECTS

Emergency save activated!
Emergency save completed. Inkscape will close now.
If you can reproduce this crash, please file a bug at www.inkscape.org
with a detailed description of the steps leading to the crash, so we can fix it.
Too many heap sections: Increase MAXHINCR or MAX_HEAP_SECTS
